One of the best things about being in the IT industry is watching exciting changes take place and being a part of them. The new digital economy has brought about many such changes, forcing businesses and their IT infrastructure to react in new ways to meet new demands. When it comes to cloud, the changes are just as dynamic.

Research tells us that 81% of enterprises are embracing a multi-cloud strategy with a mix of solutions across private, public, and hybrid clouds – across multiple providers1. With this big move to multi-cloud, the next question is How can businesses ensure their apps and data are available across the new multi-cloud models they are adopting?

When Windows Server 2016 was released, Microsoft brought us a new feature I personally have been waiting for since I first started with Hyper-V on Windows Server 2008 R2. That feature is Virtual Machine Start Ordering. Virtual Machine Start Ordering enables us to make dependencies between VMs or Groups of VMs to make sure that they start in the correct order.

It’s been a little over a year since I joined Veeam, and the adage “time flies when you’re having fun” could not be more apt. It seems just yesterday that I was collecting my laptop and addressing my team for the first time! The past 12 or so months have been phenomenal and a truly momentous year for the company. I’d like to say it was all my doing, but the team is outstanding and they have achieved so much to be proud of. Today, Veeam is THE CLEAR MARKET LEADER. You may be saying, “Prove it, Peter,” so let me do just that.

We know our customers are some of ... Read more

Hello from Veeam Support!

Recently, a customer contacted us with the very curious case. The SureBackup job was failing with the generic error message during snapshot creation phase: “The specified feature is not supported by this version.” There were several VMs included in the SureBackup job, but only one specific VM failed. Moreover, the source backup job itself worked perfectly, including the affected VM.

Last year we announced Veeam Managed Backup Portal, exclusive to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. This Azure-based solution was well received among Veeam’s managed service provider (MSP) and value-added reseller (VAR) communities. This enabled the delivery of remote monitoring and management to their customers' Veeam Backup & Replication environments. Veeam Managed Backup Portal came with zero connectivity requirements between the MSP and their customer, and minus having an Azure subscription, there were minimal upfront costs, making these new recurring revenue streams even more profitable.

Here at Veeam, our alliance partners are at the core of our business, and we continually work together with them to deliver Availability for the Always-On Enterprise. Cisco has been one of our key alliance partners for many years, and in recent months, we further strengthened our partnership through several strategic movements for the benefit of our customers.

In breaking news, last week was a special week for Veeam as we were ... Read more

In the past, we had to deal with remote server administration through cumbersome Microsoft Management Console (MMC) based tools, Server Manager, PowerShell remoting, along with various other methods. This has been a real pain point for Windows and especially Hyper-V Administrators. Over the years, VMware has been long ahead of the game with HTML management capabilities of their hypervisor. Until now… I would like to introduce Microsoft’s brand-new Project Honolulu and HTML tool to replace Server Manager. Read more
